Model Background and Subject

The Tamiya 32527 kit portrays the Soviet SU-122 tank destroyer at 1/48 scale, combining historical reference with fine modelling detail. The vehicle was armed with a 122mm howitzer by E.W. Wilniszczikov and first engaged in combat at Kursk in 1943, which appeals to collectors and modellers focused on wartime armour.

Construction Features and Finish

Detail highlights include a faithful representation of the main gun and mantlet, visible weld seams from 1943 production runs, and textured areas around the gun base. A die-cast chassis provides added weight for a convincing display stance.

  • Scale - 1/48
  • Length - 143mm
  • Chassis: Die-cast chassis
  • Assembly: Kit
  • Includes paint and decals for unit numbers and red star markings

Is this kit suitable for beginners?

Beginners can tackle the kit with patience, but some small parts and detail work may be challenging. Start with basic builds and consult online guides for techniques used on 1/48 armour kits.

What finishing touches enhance realism?

Applying subtle weathering, panel washes, and gentle dry brushing helps emphasise weld lines and surface texture. Sealing decals with a clear coat will protect markings.

Does the kit include instructions?

Yes, the kit contains assembly instructions to guide parts layout and painting. Follow the sequence for best fit and consult the decal placement diagram for accurate markings.
